Sideshow Alley: Good Things Festival

It’s no doubt rock, heavy metal and punk is well and truly back in Australia, thanks in part to the announcement of Good Things Festival. Spawning a debut lineup of The Offspring, All Time Low, Dropkick Murphys, Bullet For My Valentine, Stone Sour more, it’s no doubt fans have been eager for something like this for a long time.

With Dashboard Confessional and Mayday Parade already kicking off the sideshow action a couple weeks ago, more international heavyweights have come out thick and fast to play some additional shows while in the county. For Perth and Adelaide, you’ll be getting some action with Gold Coast getting an exclusive—albeit random—show from All Time Low.

Tickets to Good Things Festival are still on sale HERE and won’t be lasting much longer—seeing as through Melbourne has already had to upgrade venues from Melbourne Showgrounds to Flemington Racecourse.
